Clause 130 - Notification of operating licensee
Gambling Bill
2:30 pm
Mr Richard Caborn (Minister of State (Sport and Tourism), Department for Culture, Media & Sport; Sheffield Central, Labour)
I beg to move amendment No. 296, in clause 130, page 58, line 28, at end insert
'(za) suspends a personal licence under section 111 (as applied by section 121),'.
Clause 130 specifies that if the commission revokes a personal licence or is informed that the courts had made either a forfeiture order relating to a personal licence or a disqualification order, the commission is under a duty to notify relevant holders of the operating licence. The commission should also be required to inform relevant holders of operating licences if it suspends a personal licence. Government amendment No. 296 rectifies that omission.
Amendment agreed to.
